I also just finished reading Starship Troopers. For the first time. Don't ask me how went to a military college, earned a BS in Political Science, and then served seven years on active duty in the Army without reading it...but I did. Anyway, it's fixed now.

I've been reading a bunch of Isaac Asimov's stuff. Namely, the Foundation series. I'm on Foundation's Fear right now.

Foundation's Fear? That must be one of his later books. I've read Foundation, Foundation and Empire, Second Foundation, and the Robot novels that tie in with them. I may have to check those other Foundation books out.

They're part of the Second Foundation Trilogy. They aren't actually written by Asimov, but are based on Asimov's Foundation Series. There's also Foundation's Edge and Foundation and Earth that are the final books in the series written by Asimov. I believe Forward the Foundation is the last book Asimov wrote before his death. It was published posthumously.

I'm currently hammering my way through Fear and Loathing in America by Hunter S. Thompson. I think I lost my copy one night while drunk at some expansive estate in the vicinity of Sylmar last month, so I might have to order a new one.

Don't bother Vrock I just read the first one, Foundation and it was *alright* but the sequels get progessively convoluted, and Asimov's caricatures are all ham-fisted actors.

Props for predicting the personal calculator, though (As described in Foundation, yet the book pre-dates the integrated circuit.)

Although I liked Foundation better than I liked Starship Troopers. My opinion of that book is... neutral... at best. Not a lot of action. Mostly about the future concept of Conscription, and Nationalism.

The Traveler by John Twelve Hawks, The Neutronium Alchemist by Pete Hamilton, and Programming The Universe by Seth Lloyd.

I just finished the first book of the 'His Dark Materials' series by Phil Pullman. It's The Golden Compass, or Northern Lights, depending on where you're at. It's an awesome book. I'm really looking forward to The Subtle Knife when I finish Alchemist.

"The Truth" by Terry Pratchett
"Bondage of the Will" by Martin Luther
"The Invisible Heart" (god what aleftist book!)
"THe Selfish Gene" by Dawkins, although I'm hampered by his writing style; it puts me to lseep in 10 pages or less every time.
